‘The volume presents crucial questions of separation of powers with a view to supreme administrative courts. Relations with all three powers including constitutional courts are carefully discussed by outstanding scholars from seven EU member states. The selection of these countries forms a firm basis for a thorough comparative analysis which will certainly influence future discussions in the field.’
